Telford Mnyamane – Icilongo is now on Radio

Telford Mnyamane is a South African gospel artist whose music reflects a powerful journey of faith, 
resilience, and dedication. Born on November 24, 1951, in Springs Mine and raised in Dumbe
Paul-Pietersburg, Telford began his music career in 1964, performing Ingoma-busuku before
embracing Umbhaqanga music in the late 1970s. After stepping away from music for many years, a
life-changing conversation with his pastor in the mid-1990s inspired him to return to the studio. His
passion for composing and recording grew stronger, leading to the release of several projects,
including his debut in 2014. His fifth album, ICILONGO, was recorded during the challenging
COVID-19 lockdown and has since been embraced by gospel music lovers across platforms. With
decades of experience, Telford’s music carries a timeless message of hope, faith, and
perseverance, making him a distinctive voice in South African gospel
